Well that is not what is under discussion here, but yes I do think it
serves a purpose in those two programs: it is very useful to know how
many items you have there because you can do a lot of actions on many
files/photos and often the item count will be how many you have
selected. E.g. when you are going to print photos it is useful to know
how many will be printed.

For installing a program this does not apply, you will always end up at
one program which best suits you and it doesn't matter if that comes
from a list of 10 or 100.

Anyway I am not completely opposed against displaying the item count,
but keeping the status bar only for that seems to be a waste of
screenspace to me.
